Title: Apache's First Catch Post by: Mike on October 01, 2008, 08:36:05 pm We finally got Sean's big white monster out on his first hunt yesterday. Apache is a cat/ab cross that I got from Scott last year as a puppy. The dogs struck a group of hogs in the palmettos... and of course grab a shoat! Clay turned loose Jug and Sean turned Apache loose. He flew straight to the bay, swam a chest-deep slough and was caught hard when we got there. I was real impressed with him.
Clay and I volunteered Sean to get wet since he's always working and gets to miss out on all the action! ;D (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/DEERHUNTER280/9-30-08I.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/DEERHUNTER280/9-30-08II.jpg) Title: Re: Apache's First Catch Post by: shawn on October 01, 2008, 08:40:57 pm wow, how much does that dog weigh?
Title: Re: Apache's First Catch Post by: Mike on October 01, 2008, 08:49:48 pm I'd guess 80# to 90#.... he's not finished growing yet.

LOL it was Very cold!lol. mike also snapped the shot right when it suddenly dropped from waist deep to chest deep :D thought i found a more shallow path back across, and suddenly there was no bottom. all part of the fun i guess,lol. (at least it wasn't wide :-X )Title: Re: Apache's First Catch Post by: Scott on October 04, 2008, 10:11:45 am Glad to see Apache is off to a good start. Definitely built like his daddy...should be a strong son of a gun ;)
